The Forgetful Couple
An elderly husband and wife had become so forgetful that they finally decided to see a doctor.
After examining them, the doctor smiled and said,
“From now on, whenever you think of something you need to do, write it down. It’ll save you a lot of trouble.”
That evening, the couple were relaxing on the couch watching TV.
After a while, the wife said,
“Honey, would you get me a bowl of ice cream?”
“Sure,” he replied, standing up.
“And could you put some chocolate syrup on it?”
“No problem.”
“And maybe a few chopped nuts too.”
She smiled and said,
“You’d better write it down… or you’ll forget.”
He laughed.
“It’s only ice cream with chocolate syrup and nuts. I can remember that!”
About ten minutes later, he returned from the kitchen carrying a plate of bacon and eggs.
His wife stared at it for a moment, sighed, and shook her head.
“See? I told you to write it down…”
She looked at the plate again and frowned.
“…Where’s my toast?” 😂
